Nutrition & Health

Lesaffre's health & nutrition business: three key areas

Faced with ever increasing demands from consumers, and ever more attentive to the quality and benefits of food products, Lesaffre has developed a wide range of natural, yeast-based ingredients.

Closely monitoring social and environmental problems in the health and nutrition field, Lesaffre is involved in two closely related markets:

Human health & nutrition
Lesaffre contributes to the health and wellbeing of human beings through the use of natural ingredients possessing a host of benefits, i.e. yeast and yeast derived products.  Lesaffre’s skills in the human health and nutrition field are both numerous and highly specific including: nutritional supplements and functional foods, yeast extracts for natural flavourings and taste enhancement, flavor ingredients for the food industry, nutriments for the biotechnology sector, cosmetics or clinical nutrition.

Animal health & nutrition
A vital aspect of health and nutrition, animal feed is a complex and highly regulated area of activity.  In order to contribute to the wellbeing of the animal, Lesaffre develops and markets natural yeast-based additives.  These maximize the animal’s health, helping you to get the most from animal feed and boosting productivity.
